Summary: The author presents his arguments against treating the war
in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina as a religious war. Due to the fact that
religions are inevitably historically mediated, there is a possibility of a
smaller or greater departure from the original religious principles. This
discrepancy, on the other hand, is mostly a result of historical
circumstances, which - depending on the degree of resistance of the given
religious community - succumb to the temptation of their own complete
degradation. Catholics have the most shaped intellectual formation of
theists. The Orthodox religion is more a fact of custom and less that of a
spiritual attitude and speculative relation, while in the Islamic religion
secularity and spirituality are more intertwined than in other religions.
Although the interpretative framework of the scale of values pertaining to
the mentioned relligious communities requires additional research, the
author explains his sociological findings within the scope of three
determinist parameters: (a) awareness of interreligious conflicts later in
the future and especially in the near future; (b) perception of
interreligious origins of the convert (Muslim) and (c) degree of
congeniality in language, customs, folklore, verbal tradition and
literature. The congeniality and identity of the scale of values of
Catholics and Muslims is first of all the result of historical
circumstances and also the remoteness from the Orthodox religion. It is
evident that Muslims and Catholics have three identical values in terms of
position on the scale. The specific predicament of Muslims throughout
history and in the current situation has brought about an essential
difference with regard to the first value. On the other hand, the first
value of the Orthodox is a category which does not appear in Catholics and
Muslims at all.
Title: Social Science and Social Change

Summary: The author strives to demonstrate that it is not enough to
conclude about or even to explain a social phenomenon; one should venture
towards passing judgement aimed at evaluating some measure of progress or
yet a measure that stands in its way. It is said in the paper that the
characteristic of Croatian society is an unevenness manifested in the
development of separate fields, economic branches and especially regions,
and also in the scope and rhythm of changes and distribution of social and
individual problems.
